WWE Announces Network Special for March, New Brock Lesnar Opponent

WWE is continuing the march to Wrestlemania with a brand new special on WWE Network in March. This includes a new one-on-one match for Brock Lesnar, as he continues his trend of fighting a wider variety of current stars he’s never fought before (no more matches with The Big Show!).

The Network special, which will air live on March 12 from the Ricoh Coliseum in Toronto, Canada, will feature Brock Lesnar taking on Luke Harper, of the Wyatt Family. This would appear to more or less confirm that Lesnar’s Wrestlemania program will be against Bray Wyatt, although this isn’t necessarily a massive shock, considering WWE has spent the last few weeks setting it up. It should be a good, hard-hitting match for Wrestlemania, just as this match could end up being a breakout moment for Harper, provided he’s allowed to get any offense in.

Of course, the card is subject to change, as evidenced by the fact that the main event for this WWE Network special is Roman Reigns vs. Sheamus, a match that is in jeopardy now that Sheamus has gone done with an arm injury. Still, it should be a decent show regardless. Check out the press release below:
